+1.

Barring that, a relatively plain belt that's wider than a normal skinny dress belt, with a relatively plain buckle is good. But I always end up with the EG belt.

I have a couple of Alden leather dress belts that go nicely. One I particularly like is the extra-wide color 8 shell cordovan with a nickle buckel.

I just wear one of my 2 cheap belts - something in the 1 1/2 range or so. Black with silver buckle, brown with tarnished gold buckle. Pretty simple.

i only have one belt that i wear...its very dark brown with distressed embossed designs on the leather and a tarnished brass buckle...that is too casual to wear with a blazer, plus its black and my blazer/shoe combo will prob be black....so i was looking for a bit of a dress/casual belt that would be practical
